nordstrom’s is that the right punctuation?

my mom was saying something.

she said

“michelle bought christy two shirts from nordstom’s.”

this is not correct, right?

she said

“its like, if i said… ‘i’m going to alissa’s house'”

that would be right, because “alissa” is describing the house.

but “nordstom’s” is different.

correct?

plzandthx

“Michelle bought Christy two shirts from Nordstrom.” would be the correct sentence.

Where did she buy them? Nordstrom.

“I’m going to Alissa’s house.”

Where are you going? The house. Whose house? Alissa’s.

“Alissa’s” has the possesive apostrophe in it because it is saying that the house belongs to Alissa.

Nordstrom does not possess anyone or anything in your above sentence.

Hope this helped you understand why you were correct.

It should be “michelle bought christy two shirts from nordstrom”. There is no need to indicate possession, as in “It is Nordstrom’s company policy…”
